Perdita, the widowed Duchess of Ormond, keeps a dangerous secret, the truth of how her brutish husband died. Unfortunately a mysterious avenger knows it and threats her life.
There's only one friend she can turn to for help, her husband's former secretary, Lord Archer Lisle, the youngest and good-natured son of the Duke of Pemberton.
Archer has always loved Perdita and he had to witness her every heartache and abuse and for years he could only stand by, seething, as she suffered.
Now he has all the intentions to help her in every way he can, and protract her beloved from this new threat.




The plot was (is) so very interesting; so much so that, as soon as I've received the novel, I started reading it, very late in the night and with a certain eagerness...what a pity that the development didn't exactly satisfied my expectation. Let's be clear, it is not a bad novel, not at all, but I've encountered some uncertainties, some dead parts and some exaggerations as well.
